    About this Video
    Some of the best wakeboard riders in Sweden got to experience this on the Lissforsen stream in Dala-Floda, where Red Bull UpStream was resolved. During two days, eight invited riders struggled to master the rapids’ fast-flowing water behind power-driven winch ropes. 18-year-old Ken Ekblom Johansson from Bålsta walked away with the win.
